Google Glass“Welcome to a World through Glass” Tristan Fortis Research Project Slides ITMG 100 10
Google’s Vision for Glass • Create a closer relationship with technology. • Move away from technology that competes with real life • Ex: Take pictures and record videos as you experience them. Allows you to capture the experience and remain in the moment. • There when you want it, gone when you don’t. • Ex: Glass is not in field of vision. Remain connected to what you doing. By bringing technology closer, we can get it more out of the way.
How it works Cont… • Touchpad • Location: Right arm of Glass • Control: By swiping and taping touchpad • Speaker • Location: Right arm of Glass just behind the ear • Control: Automatic voice commands
